One day a bargain is made at Trick Albright's home in Holly Springs MS: Decipher the Voynich Manuscript for a $3 BLN prize.The manuscript has been cloistered in the Yale University library since the 1960s, but was written in the 15th Century and was owned by many icons of the Renaissance period. In the 18th century, the manuscript disappeared for two-hundred years until it was discovered in a monastery by Wilfrid Voynich, a bookseller and revolutionary. The meanings of the undeciphered text and enigmatic illustrations remain a mystery. The author and the purpose of the manuscript are also unknown.Trick Albright and his team from Holly Springs, MS take on the challenge. What they don't know is that the text was deciphered by Wilfrid's wife, the brilliant Ethel Voynich a century ago and she had a very good reason to keep the contents of the manuscript secret."When the time comes, I will prove to the world that the black magic of the Middle Ages consisted of discoveries far in advance of 20th-century science." V. Voynich, 1920. THAT TIME IS NOW!
